Directories
Directory
System:
For those who have their programs stored in
multiple directories the Directory Shortcut List is helpful. The drop
down list above the file list window is like a list of shortcuts to
various directories. You may have a separate directory for each machine.
Each default directory is set in the configuration. The idea is that
when you pick one of the items in the drop down shortcut list, it will
set the file window to that directory. Also, when the directory path is
the same as one of the machine default directories, that item in the
shortcut list appears and goes to that directory when you change the
machine in the Machine dropdown list.
To configure the directories, go to Settings - Machines...
Directory Shortcuts - This is a list of directory paths and descriptions. The Descriptions on this list show up in the Directory Shortcut dropdown list on the main DNC Server window. The Path is the directory that will show in the main file window. Highlight one of the descriptions before you press the Edit, Remove or Up/Down buttons. Title shows up in the directory drop down list on the left side of the main window. Put in the File Path that you want this item to show in the main file window.
When the Default Read Directory in Settings - Communication - Files matches one of the paths in Directory Shortcuts, that directory will be displayed whenever that machine is chosen
For reference, this information is stored in the DNC.INI file in the following manner:
In the DNC.INI file is the [Dirs]
section which is a list of directories that show up in the drop down list above the file window.
Items are in the format of:
Dir1=Name
that shows up in list, directory path
[Dirs]
Dir1=OKUMA,g:\DncData\okuma\
Dir2=OKUMA1,g:\DncData\okuma1\
Dir3=OKUMA 50,g:\DncData\okuma50\
Dir4=INDEX,g:\DncData\index\
